As many of you already know I took over a losing program last year and this year despite having zero assistants we are 4-1 in the district with 1 game left to clinch the district title against our arch rival. Here's the scenario; its been raining for 2 straight days and our crappy practice field is flooded like Noah is on the way, they say dont go on the game field because if we host a playoff game (the first one in school history) they want it looking nice,the baseball coach (grounds landscaper0 says the baseball/softball field are off limits, lord forbid we interrupt basketball practice to use the gym. Yesterday we watched film got heavy upperbody workout and conditioning running on a hill. Someone please give me ideas. I'm almost leaning towards the parking lot.

Wow- you have to find someplace to practice! I'd say to hell with it and go on the field. The play off game is a possibility while the game coming up is reality. I'd rather the team looked good then the field. There's also the gym either very early or after basketball practice (has it officially started yet even- we don't officially start till Nov. 4th?) If it has not officially started a sport in season should have priority over one that is not.

We run into to this quite frequently here in South Florida (usually Lightning chases us off the field). We have created a routine of going into the hallways - players are in full gear and their sneakers - and we do just about everything except tackle to the ground. We can go one on one blocking, Fit-Wrap-Drive, handoffs, throw and catch. We'll have our 28 guys spread out on 2 floors - we can run stairs or simply run. It's certainly not our favorite way of doing things but it definitely has paid dividends for us.

LOL, I'd say then move on after this year. The sup is more concerned with having the field look good then allowing the team to prepare? Pretty clear he's a clueless half wit who cannot prioritize anything. I honestly cannot picture my Sup involving himself in the day to day of my school- let coaches, AD's and Principles work that stuff out.
